Relevant wiki: Standard Model
The Higgs boson has spin-0 and the Z boson has spin-1 , so neither may have spin- 2 1 .
Th strange quark does participate in strong interactions when it binds to other quarks to form composite particles.
This leaves only the tau particle that, as a lepton , does not participate in strong interactions.
